"The most important thing is a balanced diet. Cold drinks, foods with preservatives, curd should be avoided and hot soup and fresh food should be given. Steam inhalation is important along with hot fomentation during cold. The child should also be kept away from cold air and congested areas. However if the child is not showing symptoms of fever, cough or restlessness it is not at all necessary to consult a doctor. Basic measures and care should cure the child," he adds.
